Doce Tentação is a Portuguese telenovela that started airing on TVI on 8 January 2012 and stopped broadcasting on March 9, 2013.[1] This telenovela was authored by Sandra Santos, from Casa da Criação (Creation House), a group of soap opera/series authors of Plural Entertainment. The slogan of this telenovela is "Love that bears fruit, sows envy!". The protagonists are Mariana Monteiro (Esperanca/Ana Clara), Diogo Amaral (Tiago Marques Flor), Pedro Barroso (Miguel Vieira da Silva) and Sofia Ribeiro (Francisa Vieira da Silva).

Synopsis

[edit]

When Esperança arrives in Ribeira das Flores, one woman, Francisca Vieira da Silva (Sofia Ribeiro), is the first to be opposed to her presence. Rich and unscrupulous, Francisca dominates the town. Nobody talks about it, but almost everyone does what she wants. It is certain that Francisca possesses something that her deceased mother Antónia Santinho Vieira da Silva (Mario João Luís) left her, which allows her to reign over Ribeira das Flores, along with her godfather, the feared Ricardo Sequeira (Marco Delgado). But not even he knows Francisca's trump card, that she has always wanted Tiago. She fell in love with him when she was a teenager, tried to seduce him, but he refused her advances. This hurt her pride as a woman and she has not forgotten it even to this day. Tiago's persistent refusals only make her want him even more. She tries to convince him that his family had nothing to do with the failure of Marques Flor, but Tiago does not believe her and wants nothing to do with her family. Tiago is determined to discover the truth. Against everything and everyone.

Francisca realizes that Esperança is a threat long before knowing the feelings that Tiago begins to have for her. When it is apparent that Esperança is about to steal the love of the man that she has always wanted, Francisca loses her head and tries to remove her rival in any way. She is willing to do anything, from abusing the influence she has over the people in town, to carrying out dangerous and Machiavellian schemes. Francisca swears that Tiago is not hers, but he will also never be Esperança's! She has the support of Miguel Vieira da Silva (Pedro Barroso), her adoptive brother, in her struggle.

Miguel recognizes Esperança's beauty as soon as he sees her. Arrogant and used to every attention by the most beautiful women, he finds her simple and inferior to himself. When Francisca commands him to approach Esperança and find out where she comes from, Miguel "obeys" with resentment. But soon later he perceives she is different from other women and she captivates him more profoundly than he expected. Then he tries to seduce her. Thinking him well-intentioned, Esperança gives what she considers to be a friendship without ulterior motives.

Tiago is infuriated with the two's intimacy, and does everything to warn Esperança of Miguel's true character. And where the rivalry between Tiago and Miguel was already legendary in the town, from this moment on it becomes visceral. A relentless fight starts for Esperança's heart.
